Igbere just lost a young handsome guy to the street… Akilu you called me yesterday, though I couldn’t reach you, I was troubled within me from then till now, until I saw the terrible picture of you dead, shot in the head at a close range, while you seated on that barbers chair armless, I said this is it and why I was restless. I wish you lived longer, and for your child, who will she call daddy?

Hey young Nigga in the street, take it easy, use your head, be smart, life is not actually that your fantasy, you can do better, and you can aspire bigger. Rest in peace to the dead, life goes on.
